| ENGL 217 - Writing about Photography |
|
Wrting about Photography covers the fundamentals of generating language that responds to photographs and explores contemporary approaches to photography. Students will practice describing photographs, increase their vocabulary about form, learn strategies of observation, and explore the threshold between description and interpretation. These skills will then be expanded by engaging in writing about photographs in pairs or sequences, and conducting limited research to place a photograph in the context of a photgrapher's career, an artistic movement, or a cultural moment. The second half of the course will be devoted to contemporary photographers' creative solutions to problems faced in photography. Pre-requisite: College Writing
